(I’m taking this excuse/opportunity to be a sap and let you know how much you’re appreciated. This blog wouldn’t be complete without some obligatory holiday post.) To all my old readers: I’m glad you’re still here! Your encouragement and enthusiasm fuels my efforts and keeps me going. To all my new readers: Welcome! Poke around and feel free to post your ideas, ask questions, and … Continue reading Happy New Year!
I’m back from break. Why did it take so long to come back? Well, I could say I’ve been busy. But then naturally you’d ask, busy with what? In which case I have to admit I haven’t really been all that busy. I’ve given up trying to fight the winter blues so instead I’ve embraced hibernating in the house on weekends and catching up on … Continue reading Back
I’m going to put the blog on a small hiatus. It’s been over 8 months of constant blogging, and I’ve finally run out of steam. That plus life and fun getting happily in the way (like a new job and an upcoming vacation!) have prevented me from generating a steady stream of posts. For now. Worry not, I have lots more planned for when I … Continue reading Break
If you’ve been paying attention at all, you may have noticed there have not been any posts of substance for about one month. Contrast this with the previous steady stream of 1-4 posts a week and you might wonder if something is up. And yeah, you might be right. New Job Remember that new group of people I was talking about a few weeks back? … Continue reading Notable Absence
Having hit almost 75 posts, I compiled a list of the top 10 posts from this blog. “Top” was defined by me to be most viewed posts of all time. Pages were excluded, so the About page, while awesome and popular, doesn’t count, but you should still read it. And as much as I wanted to just pick my favorites and leave it at that, … Continue reading Top 10
In case you don’t know what I’m talking about, please catch up first. UPDATE I’m doing this college style, so you still have all day today to submit your post. I know I’m missing a few faces (names) on the roster, including mine. For those of you who have already submitted, a big thank you, you get extra credit (somehow)! August 1st Just a quick … Continue reading Carnival of Aces: Deadline Looms Near
It seems there’s a trend going around where people analyze and comment on the search terms which led inquiring minds to their blog. So I opened up my dashboard one morning and found, suprisingly, exactly what I’ve been looking for (and hopefully they found it too). Search Engine Terms That is, the keywords or phrases people typed in and clicked through to my blog. An … Continue reading Searching (and Finding)
A Long Overdue Check-Up A few weeks ago I was searching for healthcare and came across the Dimensions Clinic. It’s actually part of the Castro Mission Health Clinic in San Francisco’s Castro-Mission neighborhood, but Dimensions is the queer youth division. Since it was also recommended by someone else as a solid option to get trans-friendly medical care, I gathered up my courage to go check … Continue reading Dimensions Clinic
Today, April 23, is my birthday (don’t worry, I scheduled this post beforehand, I’m probably out celebrating right now). I share this day of birth of William Shakespeare, Shirley Temple, and other famous people who have Wikipedia articles. I am now 25 years old, and looking younger everyday. It’s also almost exactly two months since my top surgery, and as a mish-mash-all-in-one I’ll share my … Continue reading Birthday
As anyone whose gender is non-binary, I dread forms, especially online ones where you absolutely cannot click “next” until you fill everything out. Here are three forms that I’ve recently filled out that have surprised me in some way. Trevor Space This is a subgroup of the larger Trevor Project, focusing on spreading LGBT awareness in order to prevent suicide in queer teens. Trevor Space … Continue reading Gender Forms
